"We always thank God, the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, when we pray for you, since we heard of your faith in Christ Jesus and of the love that you have for all the saints, because of the hope laid up for you in heaven....And so, from the day we heard, we have not ceased to pray for you, asking that you may be filled with the knowledge of His will in all spiritual wisdom and understanding, so as to walk in a manner worthy of the Lord, fully pleasing to Him, bearing fruit in every good work and increasing in the knowledge of God. May you be strengthened with all power, according to His glorious might, for all endurance and patience with joy, giving thanks to the Father, who has qualified you to share in the inheritance of the saints in light. He has delivered us from the domain of darkness and transferred us to the kingdom of his beloved Son, in whom we have redemption , the forgiveness of sins."
Colossians 1:3-5a, 9-14
Hallelujah!

What encouragingly wonderful, yet admonishing verses. Thanks for sharing them with us. It is a wonderful reminder of things to pray for. Even though there are things to work on and pray for there is hope that God does indeed work in our lives and answers both our prayers and the prayers of others. :)
